When purchasing a new pair of hockey gloves, it is important to focus on fit, feel, and the right amount of protection for your level of play. The NEXT gloves include CCM’s tapered fit which is snug through the fingers and backhand and opens up around the cuff and wrist. This design allows for freedom of movement as well as a great feel for improved control as you work on your stickhandling.

 

A lightweight polyester exterior helps keep the glove comfortable and easy to wear while maintaining long-lasting durability. CCM also incorporates a pre-angled one-piece open cuff that promotes wrist mobility while providing reliable protection around the cuff area.

 

For protection, the glove utilizes PE foam and PE inserts throughout the fingers and backhand. Whether blocking a shot, absorbing a slash, or taking a spill onto the ice, this lightweight protective package provides reliable coverage to keep young players comfortable and protected on the rink.

 

In the palm, where the most wear occurs in hockey gloves, CCM uses a sublimated Sensalast material with reinforcements. This design delivers a soft, comfortable feel while also enhancing durability and overall comfort.

 

For those occasional recreational players or those who are just getting into the game of hockey, the 2026 CCM NEXT gloves are a great option, with plenty of features and technologies to keep you comfortable and protected on the ice.
